Freelance Software Engineer – Fiverr (side hustle)

At FortunaClouds, I worked on building production-grade OCR and document automation tools as part of the Computer Vision team, helping to scale real-world solutions for enterprise clients. My role wasn’t just code; it was engineering systems with real-world impact.

Key contributions:

  • Developed a Vision Table Detection System that improved OCR accuracy by 25%, integrating OpenCV and Google Document AI to extract structured data from complex documents.
  • Used semantic block extraction and image preprocessing to handle noise, borders, and malformed tables in invoices and reports.
  • Designed a modular, object-oriented architecture with reusable components: CSV exporters, API interfaces, and secure credential management.
  • Deployed systems on cloud platforms and worked on real client data pipelines used in production—not toy problems, but code that delivers value.

2022 – Present | fiverr.com/ss_hardhik

Outside my formal role, I’ve been hustling on Fiverr, solving real client problems through paid gigs. It’s where I put my skills to the test in unpredictable scenarios — and I love it.

What I do:

  • Write custom Python automation scripts, debug legacy code, and develop small-scale backend APIs.
  • Fix broken logic, improve performance, and deliver under tight timelines for clients across the globe.
  • Handle clients directly—clarifying requirements, providing updates, delivering results, and sometimes mentoring them on better ways to structure their systems.
  • Prepared reports summarizing project progress and results for management review.
  • Wrote and submitted reports on industry trends, prompting managers to develop business plans.

Education

B.Tech - Computer Science

PES University, Bangalore RR Campus

Expected Year of Graduation

  • Capstone Projects:Wireshark | Snort | Reverse Engineering | Cybersecurity

For my final-year capstone, I dived into the dark side of code: analyzing famous malware like WannaCry and Stuxnet to understand how real-world cyber threats operate — and how to defend against them.

Key Work:

  • Reverse-engineered malware samples to understand payload structure, propagation logic, and detection evasion techniques.
  • Used Wireshark and Snort IDS rules to track network behavior and packet signatures of malicious traffic.
  • Created a hands-on threat analysis guide, walking through PCAP investigation, payload decoding, and Snort rule creation.
  • Simulated attacks in a controlled lab to test detection and mitigation techniques.

What Made It Stand Out:

  • Bridged the gap between network analysis, malware behavior, and system-level reverse engineering.
  • Gained real insight into how systems are breached and how security tooling works behind the scenes.
  • Produced documentation useful for SOC teams, threat analysts, and junior red-teamers.
